Hi All,

I have some doubts about how to read the 404 tab. I have one entry saying:
Source URL: /wp-content/uploads/wp-links-page/httpwwwbrattlecomnewsandknowledgepublications1530133210-300×168.jpg, Referrer / User Agent: My own site. Does it mean that I have a bad link in my own site? so instead of creating a redirection, I should correct the link, right? how do I find which page/post is referencing this image, so I can modify the page/post and remove the 404?

thank you

Daniel

The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

It probably indicates that, yes, and if so you should update the link on your own site. You can use the referrer to help locate the page

Hi John,

Thanks for the reply. The referrer just say wiki.consultingquest.com, which is my site. If I click the link, it goes to my home page. So, does not give me the page where the link is. Any other ideas?

Thank you.

Then the bad link is on your home page. Looking at your page I can see this URL :

https://wiki.consultingquest.com/wp-content/uploads/wp-links-page/httpwwwbrattlecomnewsandknowledgepublications1530738183-300×168.jpg
